Chapter 852 Bewitched
Mo Qianhua ultimately chose the path of talisman cultivation.
Lin Zhao took out all the cultivation techniques and scrolls related to spirit talisman cultivation that he had, and after spending some time guiding Mo Qianhua into the field, he gave Mo Qianhua a jade pendant that he himself possessed.
"That way, when they come back, they'll know that I'm the one who brought you in."
Mo Qianhua could roughly guess that the "they" Lin Zhao was referring to were his companions who would also enter this secret realm.
"Thank you, Miss Lin."
Lin Zhao laughed and turned to leave the Blue Duck Secret Realm.
In a sense, she and Mo Qianhua were helping each other, since she needed to use Mo Qianhua's identity to take Qu Shu to the Ancestral Phoenix Tomb.
Following the message on the Heavenly Mirror, Lin Zhao found Qu Shu: "Let's go, let's set off now, we don't have much time left."
Qu Shu asked, "Has the matter with the Mo Lin Sect been resolved?"
Lin Zhao thought for a moment: "Even if she doesn't come to help us personally, she won't stop us."
Although it sounds a bit shameless, it's the truth. Mo Qianhua is with her, and Mo Yunjiu knows their purpose. Although she's angry, she won't stop them.
In the end, neither of them did anything harmful to the Mo Lin Sect.
When Lin Zhao led Qu Shu inside, he suddenly remembered that he was using Mo Qianhua's identity, so he took out an invisibility cloak and covered Qu Shu with it to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
The journey was relatively smooth until they encountered Lu Lin, at which point Lin Zhao felt increasingly annoyed by the way he looked at her.
However, thinking that Mo Qianhua would leave soon and wouldn't be saddened by these people and things anymore, Lin Zhao didn't bother with him.
Lu Lin watched Lin Zhao's departing figure, a hint of doubt flashing quickly in his phoenix eyes.
He always felt that Mo Qianhua was different from before.
Although Mo Qianhua hadn't been willing to communicate with him much before, Lu Lin had been able to sense the hope and trepidation in the girl's eyes. Those trepidation and humble emotions also made Lu Lin himself conflicted.
The kind of girl he likes should be confident, strong, and have her own ideas, not a pretty but clueless woman who places her hopes on others and only has a pretty face and a decent temperament.
However, considering the sect leader of the Mo Lin Sect behind Mo Qianhua, as well as her face and temperament, Lu Lin's gaze darkened. Just as Lin Zhao was about to leave his sight, he said to her.
"Mo Qianhua, let's get married when I become the Immortal King."
Lin Zhao pretended not to hear and led Lin Zhao to the vicinity of Mo Yunjiu's residence.
The people here must have received Mo Yunjiu's instructions. They pretended not to see Lin Zhao, stepped aside, and made way for Lin Zhao to enter.
Qu Shu followed behind Lin Zhao. When Lin Zhao led him to a huge sycamore tree, Qu Shu sensed the special nature of the place without Lin Zhao saying anything.
Lin Zhao summoned the Phoenix Decree Sword and spoke to the lingering spirit of the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword residing within it: "Senior, thank you for your trouble."
The lingering remnant of the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword responded, "No need to be so polite. You still need your own immortal energy to completely open this door. I'm just responsible for guiding you."
Lin Zhao nodded, her soul following the guidance of the lingering will of the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword. Her hands formed a seal, and the Phoenix Luck appeared behind her. Lin Zhao suppressed the urge to transform into the Heavenly Phoenix Dharma Body, sensed the movement of the surrounding plants and trees, and a glint of light flashed in her eyes, "Open."
Beneath the sycamore tree, a strange halo slowly unfolded.
Before Qu Shu could take a closer look, a figure of light darted inside before the two of them.
Lin Zha looked at Qu Shu.
Qu Shu curled her lips: "After she goes in, as you said, her cultivation will be suppressed to the peak of Immortal King, right?"
Lin Zhao nodded: "This is the limit that I can do after discussing with Senior Bone Sword. Of course, you haven't advanced to Immortal King yet. Even if you successfully obtain the Ancestral Phoenix's inheritance, it may not be hers..." Qu Shu stopped listening to her and went inside.
"I can only keep the passage open for three days. After three days, the passage will close. The next time it opens, it will require Senior Cannian to recover to his current state, which will take at least three years."
Although three years is just a blink of an eye for cultivators, the cultivation world is currently going through a turbulent period, and three years is enough time to change many things.
In response to Lin Zhao, Qu Shu turned away without looking back.
As Lin Zhao watched, the hand placed on the passage slowly released more immortal energy.
The lingering resentment of the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword reminded him: "Aren't you afraid that Huang Zhao has truly obtained the power of His Majesty the Ancestral Phoenix?"
Lin Zhao said, "Does Your Majesty's perception have any weaker than mine, Lin Zhao's?"
She could sense the otherworldly evil aura emanating from Huang Zhao, so how could Ancestral Phoenix not sense it?
……
With only two hours left before the passage closed, sweat began to bead on Lin Zhao's forehead.
"Senior Bone Sword, may I discuss this with you?"
"Go ahead, I'll stay here, but I can only stay for half an hour. If you don't come out after half an hour, you'll be stuck in the Ancestral Phoenix Tomb forever with them."
If Lin Zhao is unable to emerge, there will be no pure Heavenly Phoenix Luck in the world to help it recover.
Therefore, if Lin Zhao goes in and doesn't come out, it's almost impossible for her to wait for the next Phoenix Maiden who can help her recover, given the current situation in the cultivation world.
Lin Zhao nodded: "Thank you, senior. I will definitely return on time."
As soon as Lin Zhaofu stepped into the cemetery, she was enveloped in a strong smell of blood.
The familiar smell of blood made Lin Zhao's heart skip a beat.
She hurried toward the direction where the smell of blood was strongest, and then saw a scene that froze her in place.
The enormous silver phoenix pecked open the dazzling and magnificent abdomen of the Heavenly Phoenix with its sharp beak, struggling to open its mouth, actually trying to swallow the Heavenly Phoenix's heart.
Seeing the heart glowing with golden light, Lin Zhao's heart skipped a beat.
Normally, even a Heavenly Phoenix shouldn't have such an unusual phenomenon in its heart.
Unless the other party has truly obtained the power of the Ancestral Phoenix?
but……
Lin Zhao slapped her forehead; she finally understood why the lingering resentment of the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword had reminded her.
Huang Zhao's collaboration with the evil thoughts from another world naturally couldn't escape the eyes of the Ancestral Phoenix. However, the Ancestral Phoenix is no longer alive, and only her power remains here. Even if she sensed Huang Zhao's situation, she couldn't stop Huang Zhao from using certain methods to deceive the senses here and forcibly obtain her power!
"Qu Shu, stop!"
Although Huang Zhao obtained the power of the Ancestral Phoenix, judging from the situation, Qu Shu should have won, because even though Huang Zhao's heart was glowing with golden light, it was only pulsating slightly.
Upon hearing the voice, Tianfeng slowly turned around.
Lin Zhao met Tian Feng's eyes, and her mind exploded.
Those were blood-red eyes.
—Demonization.
Lin Zhao heard his own labored breathing: "Qu Shu, have you fallen into demonic possession?"
